Young Jonn: The 'Big Big Things' music video is a bootyful must-see
No lie? I am obsessed - okay, slight cap, but just embrace the hype - with thick women. As Drake once said, ‘I like my girls BBW, type that’ll suck you dry and eat some lunch with you’ - so seeing hip-hop crooner Young Jonn turning up with the ‘Big Big Things’ music video? Oh yes.
The visual alone is such fire and then adding Kizz Daniel and Seyi Vibez to the mix? Oh yes. It’s all eyes on the new music video and of course the newly launched Jiggy Forever, embrace it all.
Chocolate City Recording artist and producer, Young Jonn has released his debut album “Jiggy Forever,” available for streaming everywhere.
Featuring the recent Confidence anthem “Big Big Things'' featuring Seyi Vibes and Kizz Daniel, along with “Hold On” with Grammy award-winning artist Sean Paul and the high tempo single "Go Hard", “Jiggy Forever,” (inspired by his catchphrase ‘Jiggy’), effortlessly embodies the elements of the afrobeats, afropop and amapiano genres, with Young Jonn’s signature energetic performance style.
Also featured on the album is the amapiano themed love anthem "Aquafina” which garnered 30 million streams and 7 million views on YouTube and "Sharpally,” which amassed 30 million streams and counting since its release. Touted to be his best body of work yet, “Jiggy Forever” will be a valuable addition to the track record of quality projects, as demonstrated on Young Jonn’s first two EP’s “Love is Not Enough 1 & 2.” LISTEN HERE.
“This album is really special to me. I feel like most people don’t really know who I am. They just have an idea,” says Young Jonn. “But this project uncovers the real me. Each track is like a snapshot of life's roller coaster, touching on love, hustle, and finding my way in a world that sometimes feels upside down.”
Young Jonn’s entrance into the African music industry began in 2021, shortly after signing an Artist Recording Agreement with Nigeria's foremost record label, Chocolate City Music. He then went on to release his first project “Love Is Not Enough Vol. 1” which reached critical acclaim, scoring a remix to his first single "Dada'' with popular Afrobeats artist, Davido. The EP showcased a fusion of talents, including the collaboration with singer, songwriter, and recording artist VEDO on the crossover pop track, "Next To You." Additionally, the project boasted production collaborations with esteemed industry maestros such as Niphkeys and Dozer.
In 2022, Young Jonn unveiled "Xtra Cool" as a standout track from his sophomore project, "Love Is Not Enough" Vol. 2,” which ranked in Rolling Stone's Best Songs of 2022 and reached number one on Apple Music, Deezer, Shazam and Radio in Nigeria within two weeks of release, and charting in over 89 countries. He ended the year with a feature from street-pop artist Zlatan titled "Astalavista", a buzzy pop record.
Young Jonn joins the ranks of talented acts under the Chocolate City Music Label umbrella. Founded in Nigeria in 2005 by Audu Maikori, Paul Okeugo, and Yahaya Maikori, Chocolate City Music stands as a beacon of success in Africa's urban music landscape. With artists like Blaq Bonez and Candy Bleakz, the label plays a vital role in shaping and championing the Afrobeats genre. Renowned for nurturing producers into superstars, such as CKay with his hit "Love Nwantiti," Chocolate City Music contributes significantly to the global prominence of African music.
